Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hey everyone! As stated in the title, I would like to be chanced for Georgetown, Brown, and BC! </p>

<p>It's going to be a little tough considering that I'm only a junior and haven't taken the SAT or ACT yet. All I want to know is if I'm on the right track for these schools or if I should just give up hope now!
My top pick is Georgetown. Here are my stats:
White, Female, Maryland.
4.0 GPA unweighted & I think 4.6 or 4.7 weighted. </p>

<p>Freshman:
Geometry honors, Government honors, Gym/Health (req.), Foundations of Technology (req.), English 9 honors, French II honors, Algebra Based Physics honors, & Piano I. </p>

<p>Sophomore:
Algebra 2 honors, Pre-Calc honors, English 10 honors, Modern World History honors, Journalism, Publications, Biology honors, French III honors.</p>

<p>Junior (current):
AP US History, Journalism II, Publications II, Publications III, AP Calculus A/B, AP Lang, Chemistry honors. </p>

<p>Trying to take online AP classes next semester, and am guessing I will take 3 or 4 my senior year, graduating with at least 6 or 7. </p>

<p>ECs:
• News Editor for newspaper
• Business & Marketing Director for newspaper
• Associate Editor in Chief of yearbook this year
• Editor in Chief of yearbook senior year
• Model UN (1 year)
• Open Studio (1 year)
• Lots of community service (tutoring children in public housing, helping with childrens classes at an art center, volunteering at a place that helps autistic kids & adults, & in the future will volunteer at animal control center & local library)
• Had job over the summer at my local pool as front desk person (not really an EC) </p>

<p>Awards:
• Letter & lamp pin for academic achievement freshman & sophomore year (ceremony hasn't been held yet this year)
• Honorable mention for position paper in Model UN on the Kyoto Protocol regarding Austria
• 3rd place Mike Powell Excellence in Journalism Award for Best Editorial On An Issue</p>

<p>I'm a good writer (English teacher gave recommendation for me to skip English 11 and go straight to AP Lang) & will have great recommendations! </p>

<p>Will be doing Forensics & Debate this year, along with hopefully NHS, NEHS, and a couple other clubs! </p>

<p>Thank you guys sooo much! I hope I'm on the right track so far and would love any advice or anything you can give me! Thanks everyone :)</p>

<p>Well you need to take the ACT or SAT for us to give you an accurate answer about your chances but assuming your GPA I think that Georgetown and Brown are definitely in within your reach and Boston College looks like a Match/Low Match! Chance me back plz!</p>

<p>^Agreed :)</p>

<p>You’re qualified GPA and EC-wise, but taking the SAT will give us and you a better idea of how within reach (or out of reach) these schools are.</p>

5

<p>You’re absolutely right about the lack of SAT & ACT scores, ill check back again when I have those! Thank you :)</p>

<p>You’re on the right track, make sure you talk about what specifically draws you to those colleges in your essay though</p>

<p>Okay thanks, I’ll be sure to do that! Also, my mom went to Georgetown for her graduate degree and I have a hook as to how it could’ve been hard for me but I overcame the challenge. Not sure if these two things help!</p>
